Bienestar, a Los Angeles Latino community service and advocacy organization, is leading the charge against the vocalist. The group is demanding that homophobic attacks made by the popular singer stop. Group members are also asking for a balance of media coverage about the topics of same-sex marriage and the adoption of children by gay and lesbian parents.

A news conference with leaders and members of the Latino and LGBT communities is scheduled for Tuesday at 10:30 a.m. at Bienestar's Beverly Boulevard office, said Executive Director Oscar De La O.
